Actually an EPROM can be burned many times but must be erased between  
times in a UV Eraser if you wish to re-program the IC with a new  
program.

There are OTP (One-Time-Programmable) EPROMs, but usually have to buy  
those in very large qty as you are doing "production run".

If you were merely changing a few bits (like the SE upgrade might be  
doing), then you would not necessarily have to reprogram the whole  
EEPROM, just change those few bits.

Ted

On my Emax1 se, i can boot with the original os also.
so i don't think it's in the eprom - and a eprom has to burned from  
new, as
far i know.

( burn once read many - BORM ?? )
